I'm in the prosses of rebuilding my acclaim a car mostly made of unobtainable bits now. the anti roll bar also acts as the control arm so new bushes would be a really good idea, ive found the arb to suspension arm bush a super pro part Spf1642k for 56 quid (ouch) but no joy on the arb mounting. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Dan.     |

Have you considered the liquid polyurethane kits? You mix it up, pour it in, and hey presto. Not sure if you could make it work with that kind of convoluted shape, but I thought it worth mentioning. Hope that helps

Yep making moulds and cast my own is going to be the last resort. Just hoped i wouldn't have to.

These are still listed on FPS parts catalogue for the Triumph Acclaim but maybe no stock, I would be happy to make enquiries for you.  Part image for FSK6283 FIRST LINE Susp/Control/Wishbone/Arm Bush/Mount (FR LH+RH) Product No: FSK6283 Unit: Each Triumph Acclaim 1.3 - Saloon - Part fitment dates 01/82-06/84 1335cc, 4 cyl, OHC cam, 8v These are about £5 each if I can get them. I also have loads of new old stock bushes down in our basement which I will have a look at when I get the chance. What was the Honda equivalent called as they don't list the Acclaim apart from as a Triumph. It may also be worth giving Mark at APM Duraflex a call as he custom makes polybushes. Don't know if he could help but maybe worth a call.0161 773 1730 faceache link website link |

I had a root around down in the basement and drew a blank but did find a whole box of mk345 cortina void bushes  Do you have a vacuum tank or bag to get the air bubbles out of the mixture? |
